What a sin! The most handsome lazy man in the village married a crazy woman.

The builders came to work. Ye Tang suppressed her anger a little and allowed Xiao Jingxuan to have breakfast. After breakfast, she asked him to continue to tidy up the vegetable garden. She went to Xiao Tiechui's house to teach Xu Meilan and his group how to make tofu.

Last night, she told Xiao Tiechui and his group about three kinds of food, which were sour plum soup, cold noodles, and tofu. Sour plum soup and cold noodles were suitable for sale in summer and were short-term businesses, while tofu could be made all year round and was a long-term business.

There are many ways to eat tofu. After Xiao Tiechui and his group become familiar with it, she will also teach them how to make fermented bean curd, stinky tofu, dried tofu, bean skin, bean curd sticks, hand-torn tofu, tofu pudding and other delicious foods that they never get tired of.

Once she has enough money, she will build a tofu workshop. As long as Xiao Tiechui and his team are united enough, they will be able to expand the business. As for how to divide the work and distribute the money earned, she doesn't care. She just wants to take her share of the profits.

After nearly two hours of hard work, the steaming white tofu finally appeared in front of Xu Meilan and her group.

“Is this tofu?”

Everyone present looked at tofu with an expression of great joy.

The children were clamoring to taste the tofu.

Ye Tang cut a piece of tofu and made a cabbage and tofu soup for them to taste.

Everyone immediately praised it.

Master Xiao Wu and Old Lady Zeng love tofu especially.

"This is really good stuff, it's soft and tender and won't get stuck in your teeth. I can still eat it even if I have no teeth." Master Xiao Wu smiled with two teeth showing.

Because the tofu had not been taken out for sale yet, everyone kept silent for the time being, planning to wait for Xiao Wenchao and his group to come back before taking it out for a trial sale.

Xu Meilan ordered her second daughter-in-law to hand over all the children, invited Ye Tang to the main room, and called the two elders together to discuss how to sell tofu.

"Aunt Liu, what's the appropriate price for this tofu?"

Soybeans usually sell for two cents per pound. Today, five pounds of soybeans were used to make sixteen pounds of tofu.

Ye Tang thought for a moment and said, "Three cents per pound, the price doesn't need to be too high."

Xu Meilan, Xu Cuihua and Li Erniu, the wife of Xiao Tieshan from the third room, did a careful calculation together. They concluded that the sixteen pounds of tofu, minus the two pounds they kept for tasting, could be sold for fourteen pounds, at three cents a pound, forty-two cents. After deducting the ten cents cost of soybeans, they could make thirty-two cents.

The three of them were immediately delighted.

Xu Meilan said excitedly: "This is only a dozen kilograms of tofu. If we can make 300 kilograms a day, we can earn...how much?"

She couldn't figure it out, and Xu Cuihua and Li Erniu couldn't figure it out even after counting on their fingers for a long time. Their daughters-in-law couldn't figure it out either, and the children were even more confused.

It was Ye Tang who sorted out their thoughts: "If you can make 300 kilograms of tofu every day, and each of you sells 100 kilograms, each family can earn about 230 coins, which means 6900 coins a month, and 82800 coins a year."

Li Erniu stammered: "This, this, so much?"

She couldn't even imagine earning 82 taels of silver a year.

Their third branch has the fewest people. Her eldest son has been exiled and has not returned yet. Her second son, Xiao Wenye, is studying in town and has not returned home recently because he went to take the imperial examination. She and her daughter-in-law can only do some farming and sewing work and cannot earn much money. The family depends entirely on Xiao Tieshan to earn money to support them. Their family is always in deficit every year. The reason why the second son can study is that he is supported by the first and second branches.

The old man said that all the descendants in the family must learn to read and write. After a trial period, those who have no talent will go home to farm, and those who have talent will be supported by three families together to support their studies.

For farmers like them from the lower class, the only way to have a bright future is to study hard and pass the imperial examinations. No matter which family the scholar comes from, as long as the three families are united enough, they will be able to live a good life in the future.

Eighty-two taels of silver was something the three families couldn’t earn in eight years.

Ye Tang looked at Li Erniu and said, "It sounds like a lot, but we have to sell the tofu."

"Yes, this tofu can definitely be sold." Li Erniu's eyes were moist and she was about to kneel down to Ye Tang immediately.

Ye Tang quickly reached out to support her: "Don't be so polite, I help you to make money, all right, don't be touched, hurry up and pack up your things, and wait for the men at home to come back, and then prepare to do business. If the soybeans at home are not enough, you will have to go buy more!"

"I'll sell white tofu for now, and I'll teach you how to make other foods with tofu later."

"I will write a contract for you to sign. Since we are cooperating, everything must be done according to the rules. Without rules, there will be no order."

Ye Tang said everything he needed to say and then said goodbye and left. He had a lot of things to do at home.

Master Xiao Wu and his family saw her out, and they looked at her with gratitude in their eyes.

After Ye Tang walked away, Master Xiao Wu called all the adults into the house.

Master Xiao Wu sat in the reclining chair and said to his three daughters-in-law, "Listen carefully, don't tell anyone about what happened today. Don't spread your Sixth Aunt's skills to others, so that others won't target her. She taught you these skills not just to make money, but most importantly, she treats you as her own family and trusts you. So, you must not make mistakes in the future and fail your Sixth Aunt's kindness."

He glanced at his granddaughter-in-law again and said, "You must remember these words too."

"My daughter-in-law (granddaughter-in-law) will definitely remember the old man's teachings."

If the old man doesn't say it, they won't tell anyone.

Master Xiao Wu nodded with satisfaction.

At this time, there was a noise outside. The men who had gone out to do business came back.

Master Xiao Wu and his group hurried out and took Xiao Tiechui and his group to see the tofu and taste its flavor.

The men were extremely surprised, and Xiao Wenchao immediately called Xiao Wenle to go to the town to sell tofu together.

Others prepared what they needed to sell sour plum soup and cold noodles at home.

The first thing Ye Tang did when he returned home was to go to the small vegetable garden.

All the seedlings that Xiao Jingxuan had pulled out were planted back and the weeds were cleared away.

She went to the new house again and found that the foundation was almost ready.

Wang Daneng introduced her to two people who sold house building materials.

Ye Tang plans to go to town tomorrow.

It's noon.

Jamel Xiao was sleeping soundly in the room.

Ye Tang did not go to wake him up. He went to the next room to write a contract first, and then entered the seed space to buy pitaya seeds. The pitaya in the space included seeds and branches cut from the mother branches. The quality of pitaya grown from seeds cannot be guaranteed, and the cultivation time is very long. Ye Tang chose to use branches for cuttings.

She bought sixty branches at one penny each, and the sixty pennies were gone.

Then she looked at the other seeds on the screen. There were so many varieties. She wanted to plant them all, but she didn't have enough money.

You have to make more money.

Dragon fruit needs to be raised as seedlings, and it takes about half a month to transplant them. They also have to be dried before they can be cut. Ye Tang took the dragon fruit branches to the back of the old house to process them.

From here you can see Ziyan Mountain.

The moment Ye Tang finished his work and stood up, he saw a figure flash past on the mountain.

She frowned, walked over there and looked around, but found nothing: "Could it be that my eyes are blurry?"

After returning to the old house, Ye Tang woke up Xiao Jingxuan and went to the dry land to plant sweet potatoes. Vegetable seeds were still very cheap, and all the products produced in the space were high-quality. She would plant all the vegetables that could be grown in June and July.

As for those seeds that you don’t have money to buy, you can consider them in autumn or early spring next year.

Being forced to dig in the fields, Xiao Jingxuan wanted to complain, but he didn't dare to.

"Work hard and I'll make you something delicious in the evening." Ye Tang tempted with delicious food.

Xiao Jingxuan worked hard, and the reputation of being a lazy man gradually faded away from him.

In the distance, on a tree, among the dense branches and leaves, a figure was hiding in the shade. Looking at Ye Tang and Xiao Jingxuan working in the fields, he was amazed.

"There are actually people in this world who can deal with this brat. Interesting, really interesting!"
